#poetry, #micropoetry, etc. on Twitter

If you are active on Twitter at all and peruse various hashtags authors use, you might see tags of #poetry, #micropoetry, #haiku, and others. There are also some Twitter users that have created their own hashtags to group their (and other users') tweets together. If you follow me you might of see some of the following:

Slashing and cracking, swinging your blade. Let none stop you, nor your path forbade. The lone swordsman, you are. #fantasy #vss #poetry

Dwarvenhammers falling down, striking anvils cold. The spark and clang, a fiery rain, forging axes bold. #poetry #dwarf #fantasy

Chase the nightwolves Down the trodden paths. Moonlight high gleaming down, The woodland spirits laugh #micropoetry #fantasy #poetry

Beyond the darkness of a shallow cave, Within a Grove of yew, Druids chant a sapling spell, To birth the woods anew. #fantasy #micropoetry

Ice sirens calling, Upon a glacial shore red; Their teeth filled with flesh. #haiku #fantasy #micropoetry

The spinning wheel spins, But gold is not spun. Locked away is the trickster, All of his work undone. #vss #micropoetry #rumplestilskin

Starlight shimmering along the streams, Hardening ice solemnly gleams. Wake never from these dreams... #vss #micropoetry #fantasy #poetry

Blades swinging, shields bashing, forged stone meeting conceived flesh; Sanguine splashes watering the earth with agony. #micropoetry

These short tidbits of fantasy lyrics and even very short stories (#VSS) are some of my favorite Twitter activities. I already love fantasy (I write it, so I better :) ) I find these tweets are a good distraction to the mundane, advertising, and updates about what people are eating... not that there is anything wrong with that, but sometimes I see food that makes me too hungry to write... ;)

If you like fantasy, follow me and check out some of what I already have. I'm considering starting my own hashtag for the purpose of grouping all of my work together. If I do this, I will definetly let you know so if its something you might want to join in on you can! 

With all the negativity on social media these days, I think a good escape in to 144 character fantasy writings is a good thing.
